Group Somatic Breathwork Experiences

There is something to be said about the collective energy that is created in a group session.  Many times, we hold back on our own; but when a group of people get together who are all interested in forging forward in their healing, something magical happens. Each person not only gives themselves permission to show up, but you also then give those around you permission to do the same. As Marianne Williamson says “We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It’s not just in some of us; it’s in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.”  Let’s go!!!  

What: 

We offer two Somatic Breathwork journeys that are held in the collective group presence. One is in-person, for up to 6 people. The other, is online, with no limit of participants. 

An online Breathwork session can be just as effective and powerful as an in-person session. You will be in the comfort of your own home, in a space that is safest to you, and headphones allow for a truly immersive experience.

The group sessions will start with a 15-minute intro to show everyone proper breathing techniques, and answer any questions. The group will then be led through a 60 minute Somatic Breathwork experience where you will utilize the full power of your breath to sense release, healing or a shift of some kind. The last 45 minutes after the Breathwork session will give everyone a chance to process and share about their experience. While it may sound intimidating, this is very powerful to do in a group setting and you are never obligated to talk or share more than you are comfortable with.
